It would be nice to be able to reply to replies in your messages or notification damn directly from the tab. Instead of having to open the post and find where the reply was. Especially for situations where it is a post with a lot of comments searching for the specific replies little tedious

    Go ahead and reply to this comment so I have something to reply to myself, then I’ll document the steps you need to reply directly to an inbox reply.

          Awesome thank you. I tried doing the long press, but want doing specifically the empty space. Using the function now, seems to work, thanks!

          This isn’t what I’m referring to. I’m referring to the notification tab at the bottom with the mail icon. In that there are a few tabs, the first being replies. I want to reply on the reply page

        Okay good, I just wanted to double check that what was in my head was correct.

        Right now if you want to reply from your inbox you long press on the empty space to the right of the person’s username in order to get the action bar underneath to show up.

        Yes, I know, it’s a dumb UI bug/implementation, especially since it’s inconsistent with the general thread behavior of the action bar, and the check box in the settings doesn’t seem to impact its behavior.

        Anyway, once you’ve got the action bar you can reply directly in your inbox with the little conversation bubble in the lower right. You can also go directly to the reply in the post using the link icon to the left-ish. You can mark the message as read using the other conversation looking icon somewhere in between the two I just referenced.

        I’ll come back in here and add screenshots in a second.
